Breaking my break

Ok, this was too cute NOT to blog about. Sitting here beside me as I checked email, Morgan decided to "color her name". Okay, kiddo, go for it. Well, she did! Colored in is a distinct "Mo", which is her nickname! Cool, huh? Not bad for a not-quite-four-year-old!

About Me

Welcome to my little home in blogdom, where you'll find my sometimes-scatterbrained, sometimes-serious blatherings and ponderings about life. I was an Army wife for 20+ years, now I'm an Army mom and Army mother-in-law, homeschooling the children still at home, and I live for my God, my hubby, and our seven amazingly spirited kiddos (plus our two kiddos-in-law). We've lived all over the world, but my true home will always be in a place I've never been before. My life is plain-Jane, because my treasures truly are laid up "somewhere beyond the blue"! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you'll be back again!

Great Quotes

"If you live in a material universe where acquiring things is very important to you, then family is an absolute deterrent to maintaining that sort of a world, because family involves values like affection, and sympathy, and passion, and types of pleasure that lead nowhere in a material sense."--John Taylor Gatto, in Alternatives in Education

"The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing; but in our culture, we apply for a curse and reject blessings. Something is wrong with this picture." -- Doug Phillips
